She hadn’t even dared to raise her head, so she completely missed the woman’s face and had almost forgotten her voice.
Chu Xun looked up in a panic to see that everyone at the table was looking at her, but she simply couldn’t bring herself to meet Fu Huai’an’s gaze!
She was afraid that Fu Huai’an would find out that it was her one glance that pushed Lu Xiangsi to her death!
If Fu Huai’an knew…
Chu Xun didn’t even dare to think about the consequences of it happening.
Her whole body trembled and her original plan to show Lin Nuan that she was the one fit for Fu Huai’an… was completely shattered upon hearing this shocking news.
“Sorry! I… I still have something going on, so I’ll be leaving first!”
Chu Xun turned around to grab her outerwear and bag from the rack…
“Your phone…” said Lu Jinnan.
Chu Xun turned around suddenly as though she was shocked. Her back knocked into the rack, and everyone else’s clothes fell to the ground.
“Sorry!” said Chu Xun as she hurriedly held the rack in place and picked up the clothes on the floor with a pale face.
Lu Jinnan frowned and stood up with Chu Xun’s phone in hand, walking over to help her pick up the rack and clothes…
Even if she knew that it was impossible between her and Fu Huai’an, Chu Xun didn’t have to act as though her soul had left her body?
He pa.s.sed Chu Xun’s phone to her, and she apologized before she left quickly without another word.
Xu Wanwan said with a face of confusion, “What’s going on?”
Bai Jinyu shrugged.
After Chu Xun left, only their own people remained in the room.
Fu Huai’an lit up a cigarette and brought out an ashtray as he walked towards the window. He slowly said, “I gathered everyone here today and introduced Lin Nuan to all of you in hopes that you can all be friends with her, because… I hope that Lin Nuan and I can have a common social circle and find more common topics to talk about. If we ever argue one day, there will also be someone to help be a mediator!”
“You’ve only just gotten married, but you’ve already thought up of back-up plans for if you two argue? Did you make up your mind to bully our Beauty Lin or something?” asked Tang Zheng jokingly in an effort to lighten up the atmosphere.
Lu Jinnan walked to the table, but he didn’t sit back down. He took out a cigarette and threw the box on to the table, saying, “Old Fu, since Lin Nuan loves Wen Moshen so much that she even went to Iraq for him, are you sure you… can get her whole heart?”
After he spoke, Lu Jinnan reached out his hand to gesture towards Bai Jinyu for a lighter.
Fu Huai’an looked out the window, his dark gaze focused on the heavy rain outside. His Adam’s apple bobbed slightly before he said, “Jinnan, Lin Nuan only needs to love me one-tenth of how much she loved Wen Moshen, and even my life will be hers…”
Upon hearing Fu Huai’an’s words, Xu Wanwan’s eyes reddened, and she pinched Bai Jinyu’s arm gently.
Fu Huai’an didn’t sound like he was joking at all.
As the saying goes, businessmen prioritize their own gains; for these words to come from a man who was so skilled he instilled fear in others, they were extremely shocking and touching.
Fu Huai’an had never been one to speak up a lot, so these words didn’t only make Lu Jinnan surprised!
The rest of them at the table were all friends who grew up together with Fu Huai’an.
They had always thought that the one Fu Huai’an loved the most in his entire life was Lu Xiangsi, but even for Lu Xiangsi… Fu Huai’an had never said such heavy words!
Back then, even when Lu Xiangsi returned Fu Huai’an’s feelings, Fu Huai’an never thought of s.n.a.t.c.hing her back.
But they all knew how much effort he had spent on trapping Lin Nuan into a corner and getting her!
He forced her to his side using layers of tricks.
